Finally, here are my unposted photo's from Thailand & Laos…
It's been over a year now that I was backpacking my way through Thailand and Ohh how I MISS it. I miss eating the spiciest chills and the sweetest fruits along the streets, the endless fruit shakes, the cheap prices, the people, the ease of life. My lists goes on...

I ventured around Thailand with my best friend Ali for 3 weeks. After this she went back home and I continued solo, backpacking through south of Thailand and India. People always ask me "how on earth do you travel solo, don't you get scared and lonely ". My answer is always the same, "I love travelling solo, it's these times I meet the most people, and have the most amazing experiences, still giving me the freedom to do exactly what I want when I want".

Chiang Mai is an overnight bus ride from Bangkok, it’s a vibrant city with heaps to see and do, from cool bars, live music, atmospheric cafes, great restaurants, jam-packed bookstalls and wonderful market stalls. Chiang Mai is a great gateway to explore other parts of Northern Thialand, including hill tribe villages, trekking, rafting and of course more temples (of which there are over 300!).

Ao Nang is a great gateway to Krabi province & Thailand’s most beautiful islands.If your wanting cheap accomadation I highly recommend Ao Nang Backpackers. Definitely the best hostel I stayed in during my SE Asia trip. The rooms are spotless, always air-conditioned and the staff are wonderful. Koe is without a doubt the best Thai bachelor in Krabi!!!! They also have a joining yoga studio, The Art Of Yoga Krabi. I unfortunately discovered this place later on , but was lucky enough to take a class with Sachin Badoni, a very talented yoga teacher.
Beautiful Blueee Water, Hong Island ,Thailand
Hidden Gem, Tonsai Bay & Relaxing Railay Beach, Thailand
Perhaps no single word captures the spirit of Tonsai Bay better than sabai.The atmosphere is so very laid back, in true Thai style. The Thais that are living and working here are rasta pirate types with cool hearts. They are artists and dancers. By day the locals are practicing their slack line tricks, climbing jaw-dropping limestone cliffs, then come sunset they are amping up the speakers and dancing with fire.
